Automobile

Automotive chips are mainly divided into three categories: functional chips (MCU, Microcontroller Unit), power semiconductors, and sensors.

Function chip mainly refers to processor and controller chip. A car can run on the road without electronic and electrical architecture for information transmission and data processing. The vehicle control system mainly includes body electronic system, vehicle motion system, powertrain system, infotainment system, auto drive system, etc. There are many sub function items under these systems. Each sub function item has a controller behind it, and there will be a function chip inside the controller.

Power semiconductors, mainly responsible for power conversion, are mostly used for power supply and interfaces, such as IGBT power chips for electric vehicles, and field-effect transistor MOSFETs that can be widely used in analog and digital circuits.

Sensors are mainly used for various radar, airbag, tire pressure detection, etc.
